8 Dress Styles And The Appropriate Undergarments

Girls seem
to have a love/hate relationship with underwear. The right pair with the right
dress can make you feel ultra-hot. But, the wrong pair can lead to some serious
wardrobe malfunction worries. When it comes to formal dresses, there are so
many choices out there that require different kinds of undergarments. Here’s
our top tips to pairing the right undergarments with different styles of
dresses for your next formal event.

1. Strapless Dresses

If you’re keen
to rock a sexy strapless dress to the event, you’ll need to ensure your bra is
also strapless. If you’re a C-cup size or smaller, you can go down one size on
the band so that it is super-snug and stays in place all night. Another great
option is a strapless body suit if you’re larger than a C-cup. The body suits
offer great support and won’t slip down, so you can hit the dance floor all
night without having to tug at your undergarments. If you fancy a strapless

2. One-Shoulder Dresses

One
shoulder dresses are invogue, but they come with pesky undergarment issues. You
can wear a strapless bra but if you prefer more support, opt for a convertible
bra that lets you remove a strap.

3. Open Back Dresses

Good news
– you don’t have to totally ditch the bra to look amazing in a backless dress.
Backless and strapless front bras that have sticky side wings could be your
lifesaver. They offer all the coverage and none of the straps. If you dress has
a really low back, choose low-rise underwear, hipster style so they don’t pop
out over the back of the dress. Get your dresses at Prom Dress Shop and be
amazed by their huge selection of gowns available.

4. Form-Fitting Dresses

If you
have your heart set on a clingy or form-fitting formal dress, you’ll want to
ensure you don’t have visible panty lines. A great option is to wear lycra
shorts that sit snuggly against your skin and are seamless.

5. Halter Dresses

These are
really flattering cuts, which makes them popular for formal events like prom.
You can keep bra straps from sticking out by wearing a convertible bra, where
the straps go around your neck, just like the dress. Or, you could just take
the straps off.

6. Sheer Dresses

It can be
tricky rocking a bra with sheer backs and necklines without the bra peeping
out. If a front or strapless bra doesn’t work with your dress, skip the bra
altogether and use sticky nipple covers. They’re comfortable and will save you
from mortifying flashes.

7. V-Neck Dresses

If your
dress has a plunging neckline, opt for a low-plunge bra to keep you covered
while leaving you bare in all the right places.

8. Nude Dresses

A nude
dress can look stunning on pretty much all skin tones,
but you need to be careful about your choice of undergarments. Find underwear
that’s as close to the same colour of your skin as possible, staying away from
white or black which will be noticeable under a nude dress. Fortunately, there
are plenty of undergarments that cater for nude dresses and cuts, so it’s easy
enough to find something to match your skin tone.

Take note
of the points we’ve shared to ensure you choose the right undergarment to go
with your formal dress.
